The effect of non-weight-bearing exercise and protein intake during pregnancy on maternal and fetal zinc content in the Sprague-Dawley rat
To study the effect of exercise and protein intake during pregnancy on maternal and fetal zinc status in the rat, one hundred and seventy-nine pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups; sedentary-standard protein diet, sedentary-high protein diet, exercising-standard protein diet …

Association of genotype with bone metabolism, skeletal adaptation and stress fracture injury occurrence
… size and mass are commonly associated with weight-bearing exercise. Despite this, negative effects of exercise on bone phenotypes, such as stress fracture injuries have been reported. Little is known about the extent of the genetic mediation of changes in bone characteristics, stress …

The effects of obesity and surgically-induced weight loss on exercise ventilation: influence of central adiposity and serum leptin
… has been shown to alter ventilatory responses to exercise. Leptin’s bioavailability appears to be regulated by its soluble receptor (LRe), which is reduced in obesity. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGBS) is a weight loss intervention that reduces total fat mass and improves several obesity …

Contributions of physical activity, body composition, age, and nutritional factors to total and regional bone mass in premenopausal aerobic dancers and walkers
… cross-sectional study were to determine whether exercisers had greater bone mass than non-exercisers, and among exercisers, whether aerobic dancers had greater bone mass than walkers. Another purpose was to identify body composition and nutrition factors related to total and regional bone mass in …

Aerobic Exercise and Bone Turnover in Trained and Untrained Premenopausal Women
<p>Regular weight-bearing exercise is recommended for healthy young adults to optimize bone mineral density (BMD) (Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory Committee, 2008). BMD alone however, is not a significant predictor of osteoporosis or fracture risk. While bone turnover markers are used …
